Welcome, Challenger!

The Tower awaits those bold enough to climb its treacherous floors. Gather your party, arm yourself with legendary artifacts, and prove your worth against the horrors within. Each round, the Tower resets and a new challenge begins - compete for glory on the leaderboards and earn Renown that persists across all cycles. Will your name be etched among the legends?

Begin Your Journey

  1. Register your name in the Challenger's Ledger or sign in if you are a returning challenger.
  2. Create your Champion from the Player menu.
  3. Recruit allies to your party - It's dangerous to climb alone.
  4. Visit the Market to acquire gear. Rarer equipment unlocks as you ascend.
  5. Enter the Tower and battle through each floor. Claim loot and experience from your fallen foes.
  6. Spend your hard-earned experience on Upgrades from the Dashboard.

Tome of Knowledge

What are Rounds?
The Tower operates in cycles. When a new Round begins, all Champions start fresh - new characters, empty inventories, untouched floors. It's a race to the top! Compete against fellow Challengers to see who can climb highest and claim the most glory.
What is Renown?
Renown is your eternal legacy. While Champions come and go with each Round, Renown persists forever. Earn it through your deeds and spend it on powerful permanent upgrades that give you an edge in future Rounds.
Why should I keep playing?
Each Round is a fresh opportunity for glory! Climb the leaderboards, earn Renown for permanent power, and refine your strategies. Veterans who've accumulated Renown upgrades gain meaningful advantages - your experience literally pays off.
How do rarities work?
Artifacts range from Common to Legendary. Higher rarities unlock on deeper floors and grant more powerful enchantments.
What is an Ultimate item?
Ultimate artifacts channel devastating power but require time to recharge between uses.
Can I trade items?
Aye. Visit your Inventory to send treasures to fellow adventurers or navigate to the player's list and click the two arrows to initiate a trade.
What is Speed?
Speed fills your initiative gauge. When it reaches 100, you act. If multiple combatants reach 100 simultaneously, fate decides who strikes first.
How does combat work?
Battle unfolds in turns. When your moment comes, you'll strike a random foe. Prepare wisely - the Tower shows no mercy.
How do Tower floors work?
Each hour, you receive a Key to the Tower. All party members must possess a Key to challenge a floor together. Victory brings gold, experience, and perhaps rare loot. Should you fall or retreat, a Free Fail will spare your Key from being consumed.
What is a Free Fail?
Every four hours, the Tower grants you one Free Fail - a ward that protects your Key should you meet an untimely end.
What do the scaling numbers mean?
Numbers in parentheses show how much an attribute grows per tier. A sword with +5 Attack (+2) at Common would have +7 at Tier 2, +9 at Tier 3, and so on.

Attributes

Attributes imbue your equipment with magical properties. These are the attributes you may discover upon your artifacts.

Anti-Heal
For the duration of the debuff, healing effects are reduced by a percentage.
Attack
Increases your attack damage.
Block
Reduces damage taken equal to the amount of block. Afflictions (poison, burn, and freeze) are not affected by block.
Burn
Applies burn to target. When target attacks, take damage equal to burn stacks and reduce stack by half.
Challenger
Deal damage to the target with the highest attack damage. This damage is not able to be guarded.
Cleanse
Removes poison or burn stacks. If both poison and burn stacks are on a target, it will remove the affliction with more stacks first.
Cold Snap
Consumes freeze stacks from a secondary target that has freeze stacks to deal a percentage of the freeze stacks as damage to the main target. The consumed freeze stacks are then applied to the main target. If no secondary target exists or no secondary target has freeze stacks, the target is instead slowed. Slow scales with item rarity (10, 12, 14, 16, 18)
Combustion
Detonate all burn stacks on your target for extra damage based on item rarity (1.25x, 1.5x, 1.75x, 2x, or 2.25x damage multiplier), and spread a percentage of the burn stacks consumed to all enemies. The amount of burn stacks spread increases with item tier.
